you're not putting yourself at risk like mike adams put himself at risk. this is just a picture is google earth. out to the right is the white knight climbing 50% more altitude than an airliner. going up about 50,000 feet. from up there, about 70 miles, you're looking on the horizon. this is why we stopped flying space ships. i wanted to fly one every five months to show reliability and cost for future space tourism. however, the historian at the smithsonian aerospace museum did something i thought he would not do until after people were buying tickets and flying in space. he defined spaceshipone -- the prototype. there was only one. he defined that article as an important historical artifacts. and if i gave it to them, he would display it right alongside the spirit of st. louis added the first airplane to break the sound barrier and all those that went to the moon. you know, all of these milestone airplanes. he would put it there and it would sit there forever. now, paul allen thought about this in this way and said, hey, i did this program for legacy. go

host: i will have gordon adams answer. guest: i am not sure i can answer the first question. the second question, whatever we spend on the military above what the baseline was before we went into afghanistan is borrowed funds. the congressional budget office did a study last year saying that if you started with where we were, current law, current programs, 2001 and looked over 10 years, our debt doubled over the 10-year period. our debt doubled because the changes from 2001 to 2010 were in the areas of revenues, because of the bush tax cuts and recession, and because of the funding of the war. those three things account for more than 75% of the debt between 2001 and 2010. we funded it on the cheap. in all previous wars, we have found ways to find it that do not funded by borrowing. they actually added it into the defense budget. they did not do that in this case. for 10 years, we have been in this super funded extra category of budget spending that has been adding to our debt. host: jimbuck says on twitter, our crisis is driven by entitlements, not defense. guest: to the exte

i'm still adamant about what i believe. >> what is the term liberal and the term progressive mean to you? >> it means the same thing. we started saying, i'm progressive right after i was elected in 1992 because liberal was like saying i'm some kind of outlandish addict or something. little by little i started realizing that liberal and progressive has to mean the same thing. so i say use either one, i don't mind. >> so you feel like an outsider in the democratic party? >> no. gosh, no. i was part of putting the progressive caucus back on its feet. barbara lee and i started co- chairing it and i co-chaired it with her for four years. with raul [indiscernible] we built it from 20-some members to 80 active members and had a much bigger voice. we did not use our voice to threaten our leadership publicly. that we would not vote for something that means we would be voting with the right-right-wing of the republicans. we would not do that, we were democrats. we used our voices well and i'm proud on who the progressives are. >> has the democratic party changed since you've been in congress?

"if it ends in a belief that there is no god, you'll find virtue in the comforts unpleasantness you feel in virtues exercise." james madison always explained away religion as an innate appetite. the mind, he said, prefers the idea of the self the existing clause to that of an infant series of -- infinite series of cause and effect. madison said -- even the founders were unbelievers considered it a civic duty in public service to be observant unbelievers. two days after jefferson wrote his famous letter endorsing a wall of separation between church and state, he attended church services in the house of representatives. services were also held at the treasury department. jefferson and other founders made statements like accommodations for the public's strong preference for religion to enjoy ample space in the public square. they unde
